Dear Parishioners,
Saint Paul tells us “to greet one another with a holy kiss” in our second reading (2 Corinthians 13:12). Sort of an interesting command, no?
Dear Parishioners,
“And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim,” we read in our first reading from Acts of the Apostles. As the Spirit enabled them to proclaim.
I find curious the little dialogue that occurred at the moment of Christ’s ascension. “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?,” the apostles ask Jesus as he’s on the mountain about to take off. Jesus’ response: “It is not for you to know the times or seasons that the Father has established by his own authority.”
